katapult howto?

[Tobi Vollebregt]

Apparently katapult didn't start automatically. You were on the right track by 
running katapult in a konsole: after you type katapult and press enter you 
should be able to use alt+space. It's more convenient however to start it via 
the run command dialog (alt+f2), so you don't have to keep a konsole open.

have a nice day,

Tobi
